Stop Lurking and Start Posting!! Introduce Yourself Here!

Hello all. Short time lurker and new member dropping in to say hey. I don't own an AS, But don't lynch me yet, I'm working on it. Current boat is a '91 starcraft superfisherman 19' that should be sold by saturday if all goes well with the deal. I am spending more time fishing alone or just out with my wife cruising, so I have my sights set on a 170/175. Looking forward to learning from the community here as well as the hunt for a new boat.

Good luck with the hunt. That's the best part.

Hi Everyone. My family boat was sold earlier this year and I just couldn't stand the thought of not having a boat, so I fell in loave with an Aquasport 1982 29EX. I am conducting my pre-purchase due diligence now and hope to own her soon. Any hints, tips, etc., are greatly appreciated. I've been on boats for the last 20 years, but mainly outboards. I helped run a few inboards many years ago but most of my time was spent in open water. I know I need to become a mechanic as well. Thanks!

Hi guys,just joined site.Im 36 and been in boating my whole life.I own for the past 6 years a 1982, 286 Aquasport. I run this thing from canyon to canyon all over the South Jersey Coast.I burn a ton of fuel but do not care.I have Twin 330 HP PCMS from 2002 and replacing starboard engine this year.Going to drop a brand new Garmin 1040 with chirp and was hoping someone would know the deadrise. You have to be precise with these new Aromar B75m chirp transducers as they don't take a fairing block. Any help would be appreciated.

ADMIN: Topic was merged with the intro topic.

Diamond, welcome!!  PCMs (Pleasure Craft Marine, Ski Nautiques supplier for like forever!!).  Yeah, I bet you suck down some fuel!!  Excellent motors, so who cares, like you said...

What are your degrees of availability in the ducers?  Are they like, 12-14, 14-16, 16-18, or are the deadrise requirements a bit "looser", say, like 4* increments, i.e. 16-20?  Sounds like a tiltable element ducer...

16/24 is a choice

According to my '87 documents, she has a 15* deadrise...on the cusp, so to speak...
